LST (Landing Ship Tank, LST-559)
- Good for
- advanced divers
The LST rests upright in 26 to 36 meters of water between Grande Island and the airfield, deliberately scuttled after WWII service moving troops, vehicles, and cargo directly onto beaches. Local operators describe its vehicle deck as football-pitch sized, open at both ends, with forward gun platforms still in place though the weapons are long gone. It's an advanced dive, and divers regularly report a large resident grouper on site.
Getting there
Accessible via local dive operators (e.g. Arizona Dive Shop, Scuba Tech Philippines, Boardwalk Divers); depth figures vary slightly between operator sources.
